Oops yeah that's definitely from the WRX; so is the steering wheel close-up before it.

I like the hyper blue, it looks great in the second picture. Other than that, the only thing I like is the blue brz stitching on the seats.

The only real upgrade is the backup camera... I'd take a 2015 series.blue to be honest.

While the exterior doesn't blow me away, I've been wishing I could've afforded the series.blue because of the interior since I saw it. Glad this came out so I can watch this too come and go before I can afford buying one. Happy times...

At least this doesn't come with the atrocious blue interior parts, I believe from what I've seen.

He's saying the Series.Blue interior looks good in person...which is does. Looks like crap in photos.


Also, in that gallery of pictures, it appears the backup camera isn't on the car or it's not where the OEM JDM one mounts.


Anyways, it's a shame since my gf wanted a WRX in this color and it's going to be exclusive to the STI. Much more expensive and dare I say a crappier engine...

Eh, I personally don't like it. No, it's not because I already have a Series.Blue, but still.

This edition will look good with the black ground spoilers. Luckily, they can be ordered. If my manager let's me get this car at net cost I'll spend the $1.2k for the full set of spoilers/lip, and think about what wheels to put on.

Yeah, I'd be interested to see what this would look like if it was kitted out like the original series.blue. I think the STI lip kit would help a lot.

I thing the wheels should be orange or white and then add an orange stripe to make it Gulf Oil Livery.

What I meant is at least the the hyper blue doesn't come with the shit blue interior like the series blue. I think it has the blue stitching tho, at least it will be strictly in a blue car to match.

Missing so many things from last years series blue. Price tag will probably be the same. I mean why would they charge the same as a limited for a limited run of "special edition" brz's.

Yes, your shallow opinion is well known, you replied to someone that liked the way the Series.Blue interior looked with agreeing that it was ugly...


Yes this new car has blue stitching, but it's pale blue like the car and looks almost white in many pictures.

Well, it does have a "better" radio so price is likely going to be higher. I'd be surprised if it's the same as the Series.Blue was though.
